| description | Perovskite solar cells have made substantial progress in efficiency and technology for the future photovoltaic systems. Study investigates effect of absorber layer composition on effectiveness power conversion efficiency of solar cell configured with ITO/ZnO/MASnI3/CuSCN/Au and ITO/ZnO/BaZrS3/CuSCN/Au material. Using SCAPS-1D simulation tool, the optimized structural layer thicknesses, maximize device efficiency was analyzed. The MASnI3-based perovskite solar cells consistently outperformed their BaZrS3 counterparts, with optimized thicknesses of 0.03 μm for the ZnO layer and 0.8 μm for the MASnI3 absorber layer, yielding a PCE of 20.17 %, an open-circuit voltage (Voc) of 0.8378 V, a short-circuit current density (Jsc) of 34.18 mA/cm2 and a fill factor (FF) of 70.45 %. Conversely, the BaZrS3-based cells, with optimal thicknesses of 0.04 μm for the ZnO layer and 0.50 μm for the BaZrS3 absorber layer, achieved a PCE of 8.28 %, a Voc of 1.3758 V, a Jsc of 13.92 mA/cm2, and an FF of 43.24 %. |
